@Aims1991 @CShandy01 @hoola23 @MrsRosaline @plantbasedlondoner @LittleDoveLove thought I'd best start a new thread before it stops letting us post given we're almost at 1k! 🥰 x

Have I forgotten anyone!? X

@Aims1991 that's what I'm doing. Every other day until prob cd 12 then every day until cd17. I'll be fuming if this doesn't work after all the effort 🤣 I've said to DH, just do what you need to do as quickly as possible this month as we're in for a busy week or so🤣🤣

Aims1991 · 12/11/2021 13:37

@hoola23 I'm normally around cd13/14 so I'm going to try every other day until then.

CShandy01 · 12/11/2021 14:42

@hoola23 @Aims1991 see I genuinely don't know what to do this month! Last month we literally DTD 3 times over a weekend when I ovulated and that got me the BFP. I think we'll be lucky if we even managed to DTD once the rate DD keeps getting up during the night 😩😩 xx

newtolineofduty · 12/11/2021 15:11

Yes that's true @hoola23! No way hun you are sooooooo close but I understand it won't feel like it to you xx

Amazing attitude @CShandy01! Perfect to start the fertile week with! I toooooootally get you with the DD interrupting TTC! Happened afew times to us!!!!!!!!

@hoola23 @Aims1991 sounds like a great plan. We started CD4 I think doing every other then three days in a row day 10/11/12 and I ovulated on 12. I also ended up tested twice a day one day as my monitor didn't work in the morning, and got a peak in the evening so I'm wondering if I caught my peak earlier than other months! After that my plan was to test twice a day from CD10 even if I was showing low fertility! X

@newtolineofduty @@CShandy01 well my ewcm has already started! So odd! How do I get ewcm now but not ovulate until cd15! I do think it's odd that I conceived the first month we started DTD early too!

newtolineofduty · 12/11/2021 15:25

Right get started ASAP @hoola23! The month I got pregnant was when I started with EWCM SIX days before I ovulated so that's why we started trying properly so early! I was really stressed thinking I was ovulating too early but actually it was just loads more EWCM than usual! I'm convinced that helped so that there was WAY more sperm up there than usual! X

@newtolineofduty yup! Tomo night the fun starts 🤣🤣🤣

Aims1991 · 12/11/2021 16:40

@newtolineofduty I test morning and night, I go from low to peak in a day which is weird then back to high day after.

I've still not been feeling right since before AF still get cramps and can't stop eating 🤣

newtolineofduty · 12/11/2021 17:14

@Aims1991 was it definately a period and not an implantation bleed!? Xxx

I'm only cd4 so bit behind you gals. I am finally feeling a bit more me today and a bit more hopeful! Sorted my head out ready for the month ahead 🥳 all your enthusiasm is contagious!

I'd stopped ovulation tests but bought a new pack for this month. Tried the 'relax and let it happen' approach but that didn't work so back to tracking!

hoola23 · 12/11/2021 18:53

@GemB03 glad you're feeling a bit more positive. I tend to re focus myself once AF finished to hear myself up for manic baby making week! We've got this! ❤️

Aims1991 · 12/11/2021 19:16

@newtolineofduty I didn't think of that but it last 4/5 days and was heavy frost few days like AF 🤷🏻‍♀️

CShandy01 · 13/11/2021 08:05

Morning everyone! How are we all doing? DH and I actually managed some spontaneous "us" time last night - got a sneaky feeling that'll be the only time this month...and it was CD8 😂😂 unless they're mega sperm and last for another 7-8 days, think we're going to have to force TTC, which I hate.

Going to have a proper pamper morning of getting my hair done. Can't wait to look 34 and not 68...I got called a Grandma at the park and I literally could have died 😂😂😂😂 xxx

@jackfruit10 personally I've only ever really used either cheapies from the internet where you get like 40 sticks in a box, but that was when I was a POAS addict 😂😂 I only ever get the digital clear blue ones as I now never test early, I only test when AF is either due or late.

If you want to test early the red or pink dye ones like FRER tend to be more accurate than the blue ones. But personally I would wait until AF is due or late as so much can happen in those 6 days from 9dpo to 15 dpo 🙂🙂 xxx

hoola23 · 13/11/2021 17:18

@CShandy01 that's great! Hope you manage to find some more time in the next few days too! Omg I would have cried if someone called me a grandma🤣 although to be fair, I prob look like that these days!!

I'm starting this eve, I have loads of ewcm! It's only cd6!! I might try and give up the opk this month. I've planned every day that we're going to DTD so I don't really see the point in using them. Plus I completely forgot to but more strips for my machine thing and program the new cycle and u only have 4 days to do it in so not really worth it. Think I have a couple of cheapies left so will test around CD13 to see what's going on. I think I'd rather waste my money on cheap preg tests this month🤣🤣

Aims1991 · 13/11/2021 17:22

I'm trying to have the energy to DTD loads but it comes to 7-8 at night and I'm knackered, can't stay awake.
Still feeling like shit since before AF

newtolineofduty · 13/11/2021 19:05

@CShandy01 omg who called you grandma!? Someone told DH he looks 12 today-not sure which is worse! 😂

hoola23 · 14/11/2021 08:41

Feeling very pleased with myself this morning. The baby making started last night AND I lost 8lb this week! Just another 134737738lb to go 🤣 I think I'm going to defo forget the opk this month, last month they really stopped me DTD if I didn't see that ov was close and think that made me not bother DTD so with not knowing, it encourages me to DTD just in case!

How is everyone today @Aims1991 @CShandy01

@GemB03@MrsRosaline@plantbasedlondoner

hoola23 · 14/11/2021 08:42

@newtolineofduty is it your scan today!? I hope we get to see a little pic!! ❤️❤️

tryingtobeamama · 14/11/2021 09:16

Hi ladies...just a quick question.

I got a peak on cd 10 confirmed on cb and ic and it was still peak on the 11th. My temp has been low pretty consistently and it rose today significantly.

When do you think I ovulated? I didn't have major signs of ovulation except nausea and back pains. Im 99% sure my temps will continue rising from today. Feel warm.

Any help would be appreciated:(

Ovulation/TTC continued
Aims1991 · 14/11/2021 09:36

@hoola23 Doing good thanks you? Didn't manage any DTD last night was way too tired. CD10 here so about 3/4 days away from my peak

MrsRosaline · 14/11/2021 18:10

Hey All. I'm CD12. But bad news... DH is quite poorly atm and not up for any baby making. I'm going to write this cycle off and try again in December. 🤦🏻‍♀️ This is killing me!

hoola23 · 14/11/2021 18:27

@MrsRosaline oh no! Hope he feels better soon!! I wouldn't worry too much as your body is prob still healing anyway hun. Plus you can go into next month fully ready! X
